Animal shelters across the country are facing familiar challenges: increased intake of dogs and cats, stagnant adoptions, and limited resources. On Animal Concerns of Texas, Liz and Tom talk with Katherine Carver, photographer and author of the book Abandoned: Chronicling the Journeys of Once-Forsaken Dogs, which captures the plight of abandoned dogs, and the transformative power of love for both the dogs and their human family members.
Katherine Carver was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1978. She was introduced to photography during high school. In 2011, she found herself behind a camera lens creating photographs of her first dog, a rescue Shetland Sheepdog named Biscuit, who inspired Carver’s great passion, interest, curiosity, and the study of dogs in her work.
